Advice for an even cheaper guy

[Deusxmachina]

The p.c. will just be for recording digital telly to a HDD, to store about 10 hours of t.v., play back DVDs and surf a little wireless Internet all on an old CRT wide screen T.V.

10 hours of HD on a 40gb drive sounds unlikely, but I still can't tell if "digital" means SD digital or HD digital. If all you want is non-HD and you already have a hard drive and another component or two, putting it together for 150 pounds should be cake.

I have taken your advice and decided to spend a little more. Just one question...

There must be a way of connecting a GBPVR box up to an old analogue T.V.
On the back of the T.V. it has only an analogue aerial input or scart leads.

This is the motherboard I'm hoping to buy, Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H 780G Socket AM2+ onboard VGA 8 channel audio mATX it has HDMI, DVI and VGA outputs.

What would be the best way of connecting, is it possible or do I need a different motherboard or a graphics card.

Thanks for any advice or help.

i cant see he board has a svideo or composite out so you may need to go for a motherboard and pci-e video card (in my opinion a better option anyway )
